"Is this a movie or a game!?" The answer is Yes
🤣🤣🤣🤣
The lead designer couldn't decide if he wanted to make a game or a movie. Though probably a movie.
Yeah, if you see the name Hideo Kojima on anything prepare to be confused.
@@Megalomaniakaal With its seemingly crappy gameplay and some of its cringe worthy cutscenes, how is the game so beloved? I'm confused.
@@TheCooderix To me, it's actually a relaxing game to play, just walking on foot without any enemies to deal with and just traversing the changing landscape is relaxing.
Stressed and confused is the right mentality for this game
Got it.
I got more "bored and frustrated" than "stressed and confused."
@@AndrewD8Red i love it
@@hentacletentai2160
A lot of people do, there's a lot to like about it.
I played it through it all, and definitely found it interesting, but I really didn't enjoy it. I was happy when it was finally over.
Personal preferences and all that!
@@AndrewD8Red it's funny how different people get completely opposite reactions, i was absolutely addicted to the gameplay, and I'm usually the tipe that only likes hella frenetic action games. An at the end I couldn't be more sad when it ended.
Hannah: IS THIS A MOVIE OR A GAME?!
Hideo Kojima: Yes
Yes.
well, no... but also yes.
sometimes....mostly.
you know, it really depends on how you think the stars aligned for you that day..... I mean... it's all about whether you believe you're right and can positively call this one or the other, then it might be.
Its a playable movie
This game touched my soul. Nothing else I can say about it.
this is for a few, consider yourself lucky
Same here, keep on keeping on!
One of my favorite games of all time. Few games have ever made me cry, and this was one of them, and it wasn't even a sad moment that did me in.
After coming down a snowcapped mountain I had just a few hills to go to get to where I was going, and after reaching the top of the last hill I saw my destination at the bottom when it hit me...after 13 hours of playing I finally understood what the game was trying to tell me, and without any further provocation the tears started streaming. They were some of the happiest tears I've ever had. Once I collected myself, I made my way to that city on the bottom of the hill and finished my deliveries.
lol, until this game actually released.. we had no idea what was going on, with respect to all the trailers, and we were all stressed and confused.
Even now, more than a year later since it came out and nobody knows what the hell it is about lol
Hideo Kojima games are very confusing but it’s because he likes writing them like a book. There’s lots of deep messages, metaphors and relationships to keep track of but if you can handle it, his works are some of the best games on the market for storytelling. It also helps that he’s a completely insane too, especially as it helps him to come up with very wild universes and settings that can be incredible to witness, not just for how surreal they can be but how they’re strangely well fleshed out.
Ah yes there's always the "I praise Kojima so goddamn much" cringy comment.
Dude, one thing is when something truly has deep meaning because it comes from a very unique and real place. Whole another thing when it is overdone and shoved in everyone's face, like your comment.
Death stranding TRIES SO HARD to have a "dEeP mEaNiNg" and it's always so cringy my god when someone tries to make it even more deeply meaningful that just makes it worse.
I enjoyed the game to some extent, but it's not the best thing ever, it's far from it and unnecessarily long for no reason. Kojima is not who he used to be. Oh and BTW yes Kojima is director and writer of most of all the games he is involved, but none of those games would ever exist if it weren't for the people behind him, Kojima is the whole team, not just the guy, writing is not just from him but from other awesome and genius writers in his team.
Boy Genius Kojumbo.
Yeah, Kojima, Taro, and Miyazaki too
I always found it weird, that people call creative people "insane". Kind of insulting, imo.
@@octo6829 The term, “deeper meaning,” or, “deep meaning,” refers to the meaning underneath the surface outlook, it has nothing to do with something that’s unique in nature or set in reality. Not to mention it’s a cliche of writing and a basic function of writing, not a descriptive piece which is clearly what you view the term, “deep,” in a writing sense as. I’d also like to say that I’d say it’s far more cringy to attack someone over something that you’re not familiar with, especially as it tends to make you look a little dense or more bluntly stupid. I’m actually somewhat curious though, I didn’t just praise his works, I actually provided some negatives with, “it’s confusing,” yet you seem to believe I’m effectively saying, “he can do no wrong,” so keeping that in mind, where exactly did you get that from? Also I’d like to add a little more to it, Kojima himself effectively controls the writing much like any other boss as they say what goes and what doesn’t, if you’re annoyed with the way I stated that then I’d say that’s about the only thing you have to be angry about. Anyway, I’m not one for insults and calling people cringy so I’ll leave that little bit of immaturity to you.
I finished this game 3 days before my first child was born. Maybe it was me about to become a parent, but this was one of the best games I have ever played.
-“Being a father didn’t make me scared, it made me brave”.
Nah dude Im 23 have no plans of kids at all and it just blossomed that feeling in me, to be a father must be so scary but its also gotta be the greatest goal in life
This a Hideo Kojima game. His games are usually about the story going on a journey of selfdiscovery to find out what its about and ending on the cusp of finding out. Its entertaining though...
Basically:
In post-apocalyptic world there are separated human settlements. You (played by actor Norman Reedus - you may know him from many productions, i.e. "The Walking Dead") are delivery guy who helps connecting forementioned settlements with cables and delivers basic goods (yes, we are fusion of Amazon delivery guy and cable tv fitter). Monsters, bad guys, weird stuff etc. happens when we leave our safe space of settlement and try to make our way.
All of this is very hard to explain unless you've already played some part of the game. For example: those weird babies in tanks are helping us with detection of BT ("beached things" - monstrosities you've seen in this trailer), but whole thing is wrapped with game plot - which is revealed later, of course. Whole thing is really confusing, although statement that someone completed the game and still doesn't know what it is about might be a little bit of exaggeration (but just a little bit)
It's obviously a game (scenes when you see player's character traveling are parts of gameplay), but it's extremely stuffed with cinematics that are... well, cinematic.
And yes, I recall at least two other cinematic trailers - one with Reedus, one with Mads Mikkelsen and Guillermo del Toro
Thank you 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I love the way you can just hike and relax in the game and then just feel the heart drop and you have to run for your life and be stressed A-F!!
But to put it short we could just say that the game is basically Kevin Costner - Postman, with some spooky stuff. :P
@@Damalatorian Its The Postman, but with ghosts.
Norman retus and his amazing fetus
Don't explain it. As with a joke, the explanation just ruins the entire feeling.
0:48 - Mads Mikkelsen has been in everything from Casino Royale to Hannibal to King Arthur, he's a man of eclectic taste.
3:04 - Yes, you do. That's Norman Reedus of The Walking Dead fame, was one of the brothers in The Boondock Saints.
5:27 - "Is this a movie or a game?!" Yes. Hideo Kojima left Konami, leaving the game that had been hinted at by the Playable Teaser (PT/Silent Hills PT). He apparently had a lot of story left to tell, and had to find catharsis for the pain of his betrayal, and who better than Guillermo del Toro to help tell it?
Love the video as always!
🙏🏼❤️
Im not all that informed about Hideo Kojima and Konami what happened? Also is DS the game that was hinted at by the PT?
@Vitoko Ohh wow so that's what happened. Ill take your word for it. Also you're English is pretty good. Not the best but enough for me to get the right idea
@@TheBroGamer14082 kojima spend too much money on metal gear V and another guy made millions from a mobile pay to win app, so konami forced kojima to release an unfinished game and leave soon after, but he still had the actors and directors for silent hills, but it got canceled, so he made death stranding
@Vitoko It was also about money - Konami realised they could make more money from low budget casino games than expensive triple A games. They kept cutting funding and reducing the scope of Kojima's projects.
Kojima games take 15 years to fully udnerstand. The dude always seems insane when looking at his new games, but then after many years they end up predicting political and social situations of decay then we all wonder why we didn't understand back then, then repeat. The dudes a mix between a madman, a genius, and a time traveller.
It's because we look for meaning in places where there is none.
@@TheCooderix I'm sure many thought there was no meaning in Metal gear Solid 2 aswell back in 2001. Now look at it.
@@TheCooderix It's not like there's no intended meaning to begin with, it's just that people fill in their own meaning anyway.
@@Guirko Ye, exactly.
@@vergil8833 underrated comment
Please react to Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice Official Xbox One Trailer
Watching both the Hellblade: Senua's Scarifice and its sequal trailers back to back is CRAZY
I would love to see Hannah finds someone who makes a Let´s Play with her. The other person is playing and Hannah goes as crazy as Senua. =P
Honestly with her focus on storytelling vs gameplay and such I need Hannah to react to Nier: Automata. That game sucked me deep into the story and then I cried a bunch at some of the endings.
Death stranding shows us what humans would look like if we actually worked as a team instead of treating each other as a competitor.
In a post apocalyptic world with ageing rain. Got it.
@@simbalg4668 There you go you got it
In the next episode: Non Gamer Tries to Understand Death Stranding
Btw, the game is practically an 11-hour long movie, you can try to watch this if you can handle it
That's why I love video games. Interactive movies that rip your heart out. Way deeper than any movie
Speaking of games that are actually movies, what about Detroit: Become Human?
@@monikagombkotoova2074 immaculate game! Have you played heavy rain and beyond two souls? It was made by them, a little dated but still really good.
@@enigmaedits1559 Sadly no, it is on my to-play list. Fahrenheit/ Indigo Prophecy is cool, too. I played that one several times.
Well try obscure 2 if you haven't.
"WHAT IS HAPPENING?"
"IS THIS A MOVIE OR A GAME?"
Perfectly normal responses to seeing Hideo Kojima's work.
"Is this a movie or a game?" Funny thing is, before getting into video game production, Hideo Kojima did try getting into the film industry, but he didn't have the money or family/friend support structure for it. As the game development tech improved allowing for more cinematic games, he started coming out with things like the cinematic Metal Gear Solid games and the heavily anime-inspired Zone of Enders series until Konami cut ties with him in 2015 in a remarkably abusive way, even barring him from attending the Video Game Awards to accept his awards for Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. Death Stranding was his first cinematic game after he created his own game studio.
I see. So he is like Christopher Nolan but as a videogame developer
@@himayamata Not sure I see the comparison.
It's quite curious how many people criticise Kojima for his cinematics and "Go make movies". But really his games have always had interesting and well developed gameplay elements. Including Death Stranding.
@@JGronli Both has crazy and interesting ideas for a film/story
@@r.daneel.90 It wasn’t criticism. It was acknowledgement of his history. If he had the support structure he wanted and needed when trying to get into the film industry, he probably would have never gotten into the game industry.
Death Stranding is an astounding game.
At first, extremely confusing and frustrating, but as I continued I found myself absorbed into Kojima's universe.
DS is filled with excellent actors, a fabulous soundtrack to walk along to, and an incredibly intriguing story set in a graphically stunning world.
I finished up with my Platinum trophy and sobbed my way through the final quest.
An astounding experience which really resonated with me ❤
Yep, a day of silence followed by 'What!' is the only response.
The response you get when you finish the whole game lol
Non gamer person: idk what’s happening
Hardcore gamers before playing the game: :idk what’s happening
Also this trailer was probably the least creepy of the release trailers 😂
If you wanna know more, I can wholeheartedly recommend Girlfriend Reviews' video on this game. It not only explains what this game is about, but also the beautiful story behind why Kojima made it so weird and sometimes even frustrating to play.
There is not always a good and a bad guy. Most of the times, every character as its own objective, which could be not be classified as good and evil.
Alternate title: "Norman Reedus And His Amazing Foetus."
I just deleted a long-ass "brief" summary of what happens in this game. Even I ended up confused, and I know what's going on.
The only way to explain it is to play it. For 50 hours. Like I did. I would not do it again!
Run, Hannah! Save yourself!!!
check out other trailers and the rest of kojima's work as well. Man's a true artist
Welcome to the mind of game designer icon Hideo kojima
8:35 : 90% of people first time watching DeathStranding related content
Man this game was WEEEEIRD.
Haha I'll take your word for it.
I prefer the first bunch of trailers from when the game was still just been revealed. They looked like weird experimental music videos or short movies.
Have a look:
1 - th-cam.com/video/UcaMw4aCz4c/w-d-xo.html
2 - th-cam.com/video/H2Hy96sOnq8/w-d-xo.html
3 - th-cam.com/video/XcuFJXgU6cA/w-d-xo.html
I never ended up playing the actual game, but those first three trailers were somethin' else
@@Slapapow same. Plan to get it if there's a huge discount.
The third one in particular blew our minds completely on what the heck the game was going to be about.
I think it's my recommendation she picked, but I'm pretty sure I linked the scene with Sam and the Corpse Disposal Unit for maximum confusion and not the whole long ass trailer, so yeah those would def be best if she wants more.
@@IamtheLexx "maximum confusion" bruh
Hannah I played this game I cant even understand this game
And the ending cutseen is long like a movie 🤣 so you are not alone 🤷♂️
🤣🤣🤣thanks.
There is no good or concise way to explain this game or even just this trailer in a youtube comment.
Actually, there are a lot of people explaining the main story in this comment section if you look for them lol
I would like you to react to another Kojima game Metal Gear Solid 5. E3 2013 trailer is good.
you should do "non gamer watches warframe"
Thanks!
@@HannaHsOverInvested I recommend you do the Prime and Umbra trailers last
I love how out of all the trailers they have for this game, this one actually is the one that makes the most sense lmao.
Man... I was actually waiting for your Death Stranding video. You shouldn't have started with the launch trailer. There is three other trailers that came before I think, and you should start with the reveal trailer.
Ohhhhhhhh whoops.
You have pretty much the same reaction to this as everyone else 😂. Hideo Kojima makes great games with great story telling, but it's so confusing until the end. I'd recommend watching a play through/cut scene watch along. It'll take a while to get through, maybe in several sittings, but thoroughly worth it.
Is it a film? Yes, but with gameplay 🙂.
Hideo Kojima is an infamous game director. He made an artform out of overly long monolouges, convoluted stories and not being able to keep something short. Although He occasionaly hits some meaningfull themes and topics just by the sheer amount of words and material he crams in his games. Somehow he's at the same time over- and underrated.
Hi, try to look at Rainbow six siege All operators, it's similar to Team Fortress 2 meet everyone, and Rainbow six siege is cool. Bey 🙂🙂
Plus points if you can guess what's in the canister
Noted! Thanks!
Was excited for this one
Have you considered watching a Let's Play? Some trailers are misrepresentative or are just straight-up lies. Then there are certain story elements that only come out during gameplay. For example, in Yakuza 5 you play a character named Shinada, a former baseball player who got kicked out for a sign-stealing scandal. But he has such respect for the game that refuses to use baseball bats as weapons. Keep in mind that in Yakuza, if you can hold it you can use it as a weapon. Bikes, traffic cones, street signs, and other fighters are all fair game; but if Shinada picks up a bat he'll look at it nostalgic and respectfully put it back on the ground.
One of the best games I've ever played and one of the best stories I've ever had the honour to experience. Yes, Hideo Kojima is an eccentric madman, but his games are masterpieces.
I love how this is such a typical Hideo Kojima trailer in structure. If you’ve seen the trailers for Metal Gear Solid 2-4 you know what I’m talking about.
The constant state of WTF is sustained throughout the game. The answers don't begin forming until after 30 hours of game play. And I love it.
I recommend checking out the other Death Stranding trailers! They reveal more of the story (which might actually make you confused more) and they are still fun to watch. Here's a list:
Death Stranding Reveal Trailer E3 2016
Death Stranding TGA Trailer 2016
Death Stranding Game Rewards Trailer 2017
Death Stranding E3 Trailer 2018
Death Stranding Gameplay Trailer 2019
Lindsay Wagner (playing the blonde in the game) was the original Bionic Woman btw, back in the 70s.
Confusion is normal for Kojima Games ^^
Hannah this is like a 50 hour videogame, you can't see that
.. okay!
Picked this up beginning of the year and played it all the way through absolute masterpiece loved it. Went into my top games of all time
It’s just kojima
Im a bit late but shadow of the colossus E3 2017 trailer is amazing
hannah you should play team fortress 2 on steam it isnt really a very laggy game and i wanna see you play it.
5:16, that actually is the definition of the game haha, Hideo Kojima sure can be wierd sometimes, but damn do I love his games 8:47 aswell
They just released the novelization of this game and I'm on my second read. This narrative driven games like this is what keeps me in gaming. In my opinion it's brilliant 👏🏾.
After rewatching this reaction its def worthwhile for you to watch all the official trailers if the world caught your interest. Each one is thought provoking imo especially when u dont know the circumstances.
Even better maybe if u watch chronologically so your confusion will mirror what everyone had as they were announced/released.
you know, the executives at Konami might be kicking themselves in the nuts for saying no to Kojima.
.....that, or, breathing a sigh of relief.
one or the other.
I mean, ....it's Kojima... the guy has no middle grounds.
Do you wish for a real existential crisis? Nier: Automata is just for you :)
I love this game. The crazy thing about this trailer is you could watch it before playing and barely understand or follow what's happening. However, once you beat the game and know the whole story this trailer becomes an 8 minute synopsis of the entire experience. I literally tear up every time I watch this trailer recalling all the emotions I felt through the duration of the game's journey.
As a fan of the game I found your reaction both satisfying and completely justified 😂😂
There are even more trailers... and every single last will trigger the SAME reaction you had after this one xD
"I need help with this one" like everyone else including the people who played it. Its a Kojima game he is Christopher Nolan for games. You wont be able to figure out the whole thing on your own.
I will say yes, MGS 4 was his last great masterpiece until hidden gem death stranding.
This game helped me through 2020, I'm dead serious about that. Look for the trailer with Apocalyptica - Path as background music, it is less stressful and more "heroic"
. FOR THE ALGAERHYTHM!!!
. FOR CANADIAN WONDER WOMAN!!!
also...i don´t get Kojima´s games either and i´m a gamer basiclly my whole life :D so don´t worry i think someone in the comments will explain this
❤️
Now I imagine Algae dancing. Thanks!
@@colorfulgaming6596 you are very welcome friend :)
"Is this a movie or a game?" ..It's art from Hideo Kojima.
Death Stranding is a completely new type of action game, where the goal of the player is to reconnect isolated cities and a fragmented society. ... As Sam Porter Bridges, you will attempt to bridge the divides in society, and in doing create new bonds or “Strands” with other players around the globe. And your character Sam carries a small baby in an orange bottle strapped to his chest. It stays with him at all times. The child, called a BB, is essentially a tool: it alerts Sam to ghostly apparitions called BTs, which dot the post-apocalyptic landscape he must traverse.
who was the baby?
the "ghost" of an aborted fetus/dead baby, a creature that walked the line between life and death, and using babies like these allow humans to sense ghosts and also connects people to the "beach", the shore between life and death.
is the wife a good guy or a bad guy?
lol both. It's complicated, you have to play the game or watch a compilation of the game's story to understand.
is this a movie or a game?
Its both! Kojima is famous (or should I say infamous) for making his games very cinematic, to the point where its a common joke to say "have you watched [kojima game]" instead of "have you played", cause theres more story and dialogue than actual gameplay/
😳😳😳
Oh I love this game its got a amazing story should definitely watch the movie versions it's a amazing story definitely a cryfest
Dont worry..everyone is confused.. i finished the game and still no idea what the story is...
Hannah: WHAT?!
You know, I finished this game to a 100% and I’m not sure I get it either
This is one of my favourite games in recent years, heart wrenching, sprinkled with sadness and hope, a testing of human character..... deceit, betrayal, or not, it throws you on and off the track, your head never knows what is right and what is wrong and the lead up to the finish and the kind of finish is probably one of the most epic gaming experiences in recent years. Mind blowing fantastic game, huge story, great videos, highs, lows and everything in between........ I loved it
When you finish the game, you need to come back to this trailer . This game is a masterpiece!
You should totally react to the farcry openings
Simply search for farcry 3, 4 or 5 opening, these are amazing openings
For context the games don't share a story but are in the same universe
"I've got nothing"
Don't worry, even people who finished the game say that. The trailers were phenomenally unhelpful in regards to what the game was about, and playing it wasn't as revealing as the players had hoped. It just doesn't make sense. And it seemingly isn't supposed to.
It does make sense, it’s just that, if you were used to Kojima games and already played the previous ones, you’d know there are a lot of metaphors in his games. There are also a lot of hidden details and if you don’t pay enough attention, you wouldn’t understand some stuff going on in the main story. For example, MGS2 is a criticism of America, our era of information, global politics and a lot of other things but almost nobody understood that when the game was released. And it’s like that for the majority of his games.
it absolutely makes sense. The whole game is a metaphor for loneliness in the age of technology wrapped up in religious motifs about death or our mortality and how we as a species are doomed no matter what we try and do so why not just rip the band-aid off fast and get it over with? It does a great job of showing the themes of helplessness that's rife during the 21st century, how technology can hinder our human connections with one another but also help in some ways. The other aspect of human consumption, overproduction, and pollution being almost certainly a self-paved path to destruction is also heavily implied throughout the entire game. If you've got the attention span of a pet goldfish then sure the game is weird crazy black oil creatures and baby's in pods that doesn't make sense. But if you give it even 5 minutes of attention it's pretty clear what the entire point of the game was and what mindset Kojima had when creating it.
Director Kojima is famous for confusing quirky plots. The story of Death Stranding is a sci-fi masterpiece imo but depending on who you ask the game is either a boring walking simulator or an epic cerebral emotional journey with deep meaning. I'm in the latter category.
Wow good for you, I guess?
150 hours later and I'm still roleplaying a delivery guy. This game is beautiful. If you don't cry at some points I would question your ability to experience anything
Pretty much Amazon post apocalyptic simulator lol you walk long distances its not for everyone i personally didn't care for the story compared to something the like Metal Gear solid series but I enjoyed the gameplay of just walking and uses vehicles. Other players can build highways and stuff which also appear in your game and if a certain amount of players walk the same road the game will replace this ground with a dirt road to show that many people are using this path which is an awesome detail.
Interesting
Also a suggestion to react to, is a Warhammer 40k New Edition Cinematic Trailer. It has both the Sisters of Battle, and the Space Marines in it fighting the Necrons(Who are Egyptian Space Zombie Robots at this point basically), and definitely really imo does well at giving off the grim dark vibe of the universe. Link th-cam.com/video/B9V0bOB8sXQ/w-d-xo.html
I have good news, your confused 'WHAT!?" Reaction is the same reaction even 90% of Gamers had to seeing Death Stranding Trailers.
Heck I think even playing the game still had some people going "WHAT!?"
Hideo Kojima games are confusing as a whole multi-hundred hours long experiences.
When you condense that into a single trailer, it will make as much sense as NONE
Are you planning to watch Dota: Dragon’s Blood on Netflix? It’s right up the alley of this channel: an anime based on a video game world!
Its pretty amazing when you can fill an entire trailer with huge spoilers and still spoil nothing because nothing makes sense. That an accomplishment in itself.
Hey Hannah, in case you for whatever reason decide that you want to play this game, I highly advise that you begin by not touching this game at all. For starters, first familiarize yourself with all of the other games that have come out these last few decades before touching this one, as you'll quickly realize that this game is like no other. Second off, you can do this while doing the first piece of advice, which is to play the Metal Gear Solid series. The reason why I advise this is because this is the series that Hideo Kojima created and worked on for decades before Death Stranding. Playing those games will let you get a comprehensible glimpse into that man's insane brain, but you also get to experience a legendary game series that has unfortunately been inactive because he got fired from being able to continue his own series. And third, dont worry about being confused from either the games trailer or while playing the game and trying to understand its story. Every trailer that Hideo Kojima had ever made for his games have all had out of context trailers that give zero insight into what the story and setting is truly about. And second off, even if you get confused about the story while playing the game, the game will always eventually give you an explanation of context to help clue you in and give your answers. I'm saying all of this because i finally got into this game, years after it came out with everyone being confused about it, criticizing it for being too boring or "just a walking simulator", just so I can finally see what this game is truly about, and I can see that a lot of people were either wrong, misinformed or the game was just never meant for them. I, without a doubt, can say that I love this game so much, and I say this because I dont want to see more people harshly criticize something that is actually really good once you open up and actually give it a chance.
If David Lynch was a game designer he would be Hideo Kojima
it's a playable movie. same with Quantum Break. highly recommend watching.
when i was playing it there were almost equal parts of cut scene to gameplay. i'm sure finding a compilation of the cinematics would be a piece of cake.
take care Hannah hope you're doing well :)
If you want something a bit more movie-esque id suggest the Spiderman(ps4) games. If you want something weird I'd suggest lollipop chainsaw or no more heroes ( can't remember if you've reacted to some of these). I'd also maybe check out the trailers for beyond good and evil 1 & 2( there are like 3-4 for two)
Hideo is very special person. It's weird and confusing game. Who never played it can't understand it.
I thought it would be boring, and repetitive, and frankly it is in parts. But it's scary, and strange, and I love Sam and his journey to unite what's left of the world that he can. Every job well done was something accomplished. Every connection to those I couldn't see, helping me build and move further on, led me to want to help those that couldn't see me. And the landscape is wonderful, and harsh. It's a complex game. It sucked me in.
8:38 yep... that's how everyone feels after watching Hideo Kojima trailers... 😀
Death Stranding is definetly the best movie i played through last year
Look if you deal with Hideo Kojima productions like Death Stranding or Metal Gear you will always be blown away by a very twisted and complex story full of such a huge amount of details that you will look like you just did at 8:47 everytime xD These games are so very well developed in their gameplay, their stories and characters, i just love them!!!!!
Death Stranding brought me to the music from Low Roar which i enjoy very much, if you don´t know them i highly recommend you to check out the music.
Your expression after the trailer finishes... yeah, that'll happen. You just won't know until you play it.
everyone who couldnt keep on keeping on: "the game is just a walking simulator". everyone who completed the game "Holy crap what a game im dumbfounded".
This game shows how far humans are willing to go to avert total extinction. Someone has to, so why not us?
That's what Death Stranding is. Doing whatever you have to to circumvent the final extinction event. Making deliveries, making connections, bringing humanity together to prevent total annihilation.
First time I saw you speechless after watching a trailer and in a good way.
Hannah: Is this a movie or a game?!
Everyone: Both! A star studded game.
Get ready for a rollercoaster of deep emotions. This game is in my top 3 games list of all time; I’ve been playing video games all my life, and I can assure you, no other game out there has given me such experience
Yeah, Death Stranding was a trip to play, but totally worth it. Part movie, part game, mostly rambling philosophical treatise on life, death, division, togetherness, family, isolation, friendship, the hard work that goes into just keeping things running, and so much more. Sometimes a little too convinced of its own cleverness, other times absolutely clever enough to warrant it.
If you're looking for what to do next, might I recommend some of EVE Online's trailers. specifically:
"This is EVE" th-cam.com/video/AdfFnTt2UT0/w-d-xo.html
"Birth of the capsuleer" th-cam.com/video/M5AtqXOe3Jw/w-d-xo.html
and "Origins" th-cam.com/video/_ZqbqWHMnpI/w-d-xo.html
Non-Gamer tries to understand a Kojima game...I wish you the best, you can do it! (Except not really, he's a madman, shhh don't tell nobody)
Great reaction.We need more non gamer to react to this type of game n soon they will realise about how amazing video game nowadays can be cuz most of the people keep saying IT’S JUST A VIDEO GAME NO NEED TO GET HYPED
Welcome to the crazy world of Hideo Kojima... don't try to make sense of it... it makes it worse or more confusing.. just enjoy the ride and it will somewhat, make sense by the end....lol
Okay, you HAVE to follow this up with Kojima's Metal gear solid V: The Phantom Pain.
Ideally the RedBand trailer. This guy is consistent if nothing else.
Addition: as others are recommending, why not watch the other Death Stranding trailers as well? They won't answer as many questions as you'd like, but they're still worth the watch.
I’ve never played it, but I can tell what was explained to me: the game is by Japanese developer Hideo Kojima, most known for the Metal Gear Solid franchise. One day, death broke and ghosts showed up and exploded, setting off a chain reaction of making more ghosts who also exploded, now there’s a mass extinctions on Earth.
You are the son of the President, the dying lady in the White House, and your mission is travelling across America delivering things. You can’t sense the ghosts, but baby can, so you gotta travel with them.
Kojima is famous for absurd names, some of the Characters are named Die-Hardman, Fragile, Feels-Badman.
Being inscrutable is definitely part of the brand.
